Viscous media are used in various production processes. These are transferred and filled from different containers. Until now, various progressive cavity pumps with an external pipe diameter of 54 mm have been available for emptying drums and containers with a 2 inch bunghole or the corresponding container opening.
In practice, however, smaller and narrow-necked containers with different bunghole sizes, which require a smaller pipe diameter, are increasingly being used for the transportation of viscous media.
With the new progressive cavity pump HD-E-SR, Lutz Pumpen from Wertheim rounds off its range in this respect and offers its customers a powerful pump with various electric or compressed air motors. This meets the customer's requirements for light and easy operation with a high delivery rate.
Gentle pumping
Thanks to the small outer diameter of the pump tube of max. 41 mm, viscous liquids up to 30,000 mPas can also be filled from narrow-necked containers. The high speeds of the standard motors with an output of up to 1 kW are reduced by a specially developed reduction gear. The infinitely variable control of the electric and compressed air motors allows the flow rate to be adjusted and regulated.
The new Lutz HD-E-SR pump provides the user with a lightweight and mobile device. The typical Lutz handwheel connects the pump unit to the drive motor. This makes it very easy to disconnect the unit and the hand wheel also serves as a carrying handle for transportation. The pump can therefore be easily inserted into and removed from the containers at any time.
Wide range of applications
The materials used allow viscous liquids such as glucose or oils to be filled gently. In the PURE version with Tri-Clamp connection, the sealing materials used are FDA-compliant.
Advantages of the Lutz HD-E-SR at a glance
- Gentle product delivery up to 30,000 mPas, at max. 6 bar delivery pressure
- Lightweight and mobile use. Total weight from 6 kg depending on motor
- Optionally driven by electric or compressed air motors
- Continuous, low-pulsation delivery of up to 17 liters/min.
Customized performance
With a delivery rate of 17 l/min and a maximum operating pressure of 6 bar, the Lutz HD-E-SR pump is ideal for the economical pumping of low-viscosity to high-viscosity media up to 30,000 mPas. The proven positive displacement principle allows gentle, low-pulsation product handling. This can be a great advantage with shear-sensitive media and liquids containing solids.
Versatile and variable
The small immersion tube diameter of 41 mm and the immersion depth of 1000 mm ensure that smaller containers with a narrow-necked opening can be emptied safely and almost completely from above. Matching accessories make the pump a useful helper in production and ensure long-lasting use.
